in ancient israel many of the prophets were killed as a result of their religious assignments —from god.
even soldiers were sent out to fight against idolatrous “uncircumcised” and logically some died for example jonathan, the son of king saul.
these soldiers were said to be fighting the wars of jehovah and there was no miraculous salvation for everybody all of the time.
Fleshmarket Close in Edinburgh actually exists. That doesn't mean Rebus is a real Scottish policeman.
Same goes for Baker Street and Sherlock Holmes, or Sherwood Forrest and Robin Hood. The fact that Jehu may have really ruled Judah doesn't say anything about the veracity of Yahweh.

some males only give off one type of chromosome
Sorry but I don't think that can possibly be true. Do you have a source for that?
It is true that some males have a slight bias towards one or the other. In the big picture 51% of babies are males.

The bible is a collection of Bronze Age and Iron Age myths that promotes some of the most repulsive morality.
Why on earth would anybody pay respect to it let alone die for it?

Yes remember that well. Thanks for posting.
We had two pioneers at one point in time - a married couple. Bit embarrassing for them when they missed their hours.
it’s all a big fat lie.
more precisely a big low-fat, high-carbohydrate lie.. 'it took dr. paul marik 12 weeks to prove that conventional wisdom about dieting is a lie, and that was just to himself.
he lost 35 pounds, and cured himself of type 2 diabetes.
eat mostly veg, fruit and lean meat
Lean?
Fat is not the enemy. Inuit eat mostly fat and have no heart disease.

bart erhman states, in this you tube short presumably taken from the video series he has been doing with megan lewis*, that jesus said the god of the ot, the god of jeremiah, is not the (same)god as jesus.
bart continues "jeremiah's god killed (the children) - jesus said let the children come to me.
jesus' god said turn the other cheek" - the ot god was war-like etc (paraphrasing bart here a bit).. it's always been the thing that stopped my fully embracing the bible after leaving watchtower.

There is a useful discussion of the opposing views here...

let that just sink in.
if you were a pro tennis player, and happened to be a russian or belorussian citizen, the all england club decided that you could not compete at their annual grass tournament.. let's explore that particular brand of discrimination and lunacy further.
On the one hand they demonise Putin as this evil dictator..
He is.
Two things can be true at once.

Bart's views could not be further from orthodoxy. Always have been. Unless you go way back to his youth.
